I saw results from an interesting, albeit unscientific, survey conducted in February by U.S. News. They tallied the responses from 500 participants, and claim that there's a correlation between your choice of vehicle and your political leaning.Here are some vehicle categories that tend to fit Democrats: hatchbacksimportsprefer Honda, Toyota, Acura, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagenand for the Republicans:pickup trucksdomestic (except for high-end cars)prefer General Motors, Ford, BMW, Porsche, LexusDrivers from both sides of the political aisle prefer mini-vans, SUVs, sports cars, and Chryslers about equally, according to the survey.Interesting huh? In case you're curious, I drive a Mitsubishi Eclipse (a sporty, hatchback import) and Sal drives a Volkswagen Jetta (a German sedan).....our next cars will be green (hybrids or entirely electric) though!

The Story

I’ve been asked how I decided to name my blog Where In The World?. Sure, I considered words that capture my passion for travel, like “destination”, “wanderlust”, “voyages” or “passport” or “explore”. And I even pondered song titles like Leaving on a Jet Plane or Life is a Highway. But I’m often (ok, always) musing “where in the world?” I want to go next, so naturally my blog reflects that. And I’m delighted that you’re here, joining me for the journey, no matter Where In The World? I am.
